Ann Gollnitz helps clean up in Westfield.
As the spring season comes into bloom, it is also the season for local communities to rally together and clean up the places they call home. Thanks to Partners in Kind, these kinds of cleanups were huge successes in both Fredonia and Westfield.
For the Fredonia cleanup, Larry Fiorella and a group of 30 volunteers went all throughout the streets and parking lots of Fredonia, picking up bags and bags of trash.
“People were assigned an area they wanted to go to,” Fiorella said. “We registered at Barker Common, passed out gloves, trash bags, and masks if they needed it. Tim Hortons donated donuts and coffee, and Home Depot donated gloves, masks, bags and hand sanitizer.”
